Helen Reddy
Helen Reddy, the Australian-born singer whose 1972 hit song “I Am Woman” became the feminist anthem of the decade and propelled her to international pop-music stardom, died Tuesday in Los Angeles. She was 78.
The death was confirmed by her children in a message posted on her official fan page on Facebook. Ms. Reddy suffered for decades from Addison’s disease (she had a kidney removed when she was 17) and, since at least 2015, from dementia.
From "Delta Dawn": "And did I hear you say he was a-meeting you here today
To take you to his mansion in the sky?"
The saying "released from the bonds of earth" comes to mind----God speed.
